About Setzer Yacht Design

As custom yacht designers, we work with discerning owners and shipyards to develop smart, timeless designs that are elegant, buildable, and seaworthy. With a service philosophy of "first in, last out," we support clients through the entire project lifecycle, from preliminary design concepts to full documentation, bid submittals, construction, launch, refit, and beyond. Founded by Ward Setzer, our studio's award-winning superyacht portfolio today totals over 7,500 feet of waterline, resulting from 23 years of collaboration with dedicated owners and builders around the world.
